Eldritch Humor: A Nat 1 Anthology

Nat 1 Publishing's 2025 Halloween anthologyLaughter takes on a different shape in the dark. It echoes too long. It catches in the throat. It leaves you to wonder if you are amused-or only trying not to scream. Eldritch Humor invites readers into that uneasy space between a chuckle and a scream. Twenty-three stories and poems turn the familiar inside out: summonings go tenderly wrong, the sea develops a sense of humor, and even death can't resist making conversation. Here, horror wears the grin of recognition, and humor becomes a nervous reflex against what can't be explained. From writers both new and returning to Nat 1 Publishing, this anthology proves that madness and mirth make a frighteningly good pair and is perfect for fans of dark humor, Lovecraftian oddities, and Halloween stories with a twist of the ridiculous. If you giggle into the abyss, it just might giggle back.Included in this collection are the works: - "Cute Meet," by B.S.Roberts
